perfect timing of the perfect gift

i've been running around all day getting myself packed. meghan will be here in an hour or so and then we head up to the cities. we just got back from a few last minute errands and what did i find awaiting me in my mail box?

a gorgeous water bottle cozy both designed and knit by the amazing kathy over at work in progress. kathy is not only a knitter she is a marathon runner and her training has served as inspiration to me while i was training for the walk.

and since she's a runner she really knows what is needed on a water bottle cover for both runners and walkers - a handle! and what makes it even better is it fits perfectly on the bottle i keep gatorade in. yay!!

i'm so touched by kathy's thoughtfulness. i'm glad i get to take a piece of her with me on my walk. every time i take a drink of gatorade i'll think of kathy, and of all of you who are cheering me on.

Such a thoughtful and perfect gift from Kathy! I wish you a safe and painless (well, as much as it can be) walk the next 3 days. Take care of yourself and know that many of us will be sending positive vibes your way. Be safe dear friend!

Oh my goodness! I can't believe you took the time to post when you have so much going on! I'm so glad that I can offer something to your walk this year. As I said to you, you inspire me with your amazing dedication to ending breast cancer.

Have a wonderful time, Team Breast Intentions! I hope the wind is always at your back, helping you closer to the finish!
